[opencms-dev] AA Starting Tomcat under Linux

[nickm at absa.co.za]

 Hi Cristof

I have minimal Unix exposure so I have just enough knowledge to break
and re-installed
Which is just what I did yesterday

I tried to place code in file tomcat.sh
And now my Linux wont let me login 

I put tomcat.sh in this folder:
/etc/profile.d


And every time I logon I got error 
Cant find catalina.sh
And the Login screen re appeared
Even from the "safe mode"

No fixing helped so I formatted the hard disk and re-installed Linux


Dear friend please help me again and tell me :
What file must I create
Where must I put this file
And what code must this file have inside



 

With kind regards

Nick Michael

Did you write it that way? CATALINA_home? Where did you define
CATALINA_home?

Try something like

export CATALINA_HOME=/full/path/to/tomcat
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/java (or where your j2sdk is installed)

cd $CATALINA_HOME/bin
./startup.sh


> cd $CATALINA_home/bin
> ./startup.sh

How familar are you with Linux and Unix in general, BTW?
